Waste Funding

To best manage the funding available to support the strongest initiatives, we have adopted a competitive funding approval process for capital projects in the energy, transportation, waste and water sectors. There are no changes to the eligibility criteria or funding limits for these projects.

To be eligible for funding, your project must demonstrate the potential to divert at least 50% of municipal solid waste from landfill. If your municipality has already achieved a total diversion rate of at least 50%, your project must demonstrate the potential to result in an incremental improvement above 50%.
